Abstract: ABSTRACT A long-standing challenge to understanding the human visual system is to reconcile our unified visual experience of a three-dimensional (3D) world with findings suggesting that the visual system operates, at least partially, as a modular system. This dissertation is composed of studies that investigate how systematic changes in retinal image structure, and changes in binocular disparity arising from either motion in depth or rotation in depth, are used to derive a number of perceptual judgments in 3D space. The assumption that looming and stereomotion mechanisms operate in tandem, and feed into an early joint motion-in-depth mechanism, is challenged by the findings of Chapter 3. Using the flash-lag paradigm, it was found that stereomotion, but not looming, induces an apparent displacement in the position in depth of a flashed object, and the effect is speed dependent. This finding suggests that, in terms of the encoding of metric depth, the two mechanisms produce qualitatively different results. Moreover, the flash-lag-in-depth phenomenon is accompanied by a novel size effect, which appears to contradict the geometrical predictions typically used to account for size illusions associated with depth perception, and serves as an evidence of top-down processing in deriving congruent estimates of image size and position in depth. Assuming that different mechanisms underlie the computations of 2D motion and motion in the depth, their outputs must be combined at some stage, given that objects in the 3D world often traverse frontoparallel and median planes simultaneously. Findings of how 2D motion affects the apparent speed of motion in depth are reported in Chapter 4. Dots defining a frontoparallel square conducted random walks on its surface, while the square itself moved towards the observer. It was found that apparent speed in depth increases as a function of the speed of random 2D motion. Additionally, the visual system appears to combine motion signals in the twoplanes by vector summation when motion in depth is defined by stereomotion, whereas averaging is implemented when motion in depth is defined by looming. The detection of 3D structure often requires the integration of local motion signals traversing 3D space. An investigation of this process, using cylinders with an apparently identical 3D shape, is reported in Chapter 5. A cooperative integration of disparity and structure from motion was found: compared to bi-rotation in depth, a unified direction of rotation in depth improves detection performance, which can be explained by the functional properties of MT neurons. While the apparent 3D shape of cylinders remains constant for a range of dot densities, sensitivity to the existence of cylinders embedded in random noise increases as a function of dot density, which implies a gradation in 3D-structure interpolation. To examine the effect of apparent orientation in 3D space imposed on the bi-stable appearance of rotation in depth, in Chapter 6 the detection of spontaneous and physical reversals in the direction of motion were compared for cylinders and Necker cubes defined by structure from motion. The frequency of spontaneous reversals occurring with the Necker cube is far lower than with the cylinder and with Necker cubes defined by outlines. Furthermore, physical reversals that occurred with the Necker cube are much more detectable than with the cyli

During the past 25 years, the field of space and motion perception has rapidly advanced. Once thought to be distinct perceptual modes, space and motion are now thought to be closely linked. Perception of Space andMotion provides a comprehensive review of perception and vision research literature, including new developments in the use of sound and touch in perceiving space and motion. Other topics include the perception of structure from motion, spatial layout,and information obtained in static and dynamic stimulation.

Volume 3 addresses depth-perception mechanisms other than stereopsis. It starts by reviewing monocular cues to depth, including accommodation, vergence, perspective, interposition, shading, and motion parallax. Constancies, such as the ability to perceive the sizes and shapes of objects as they move are reviewed. The ways in which different depth cues interact are discussed. One chapter reviews information used to perceive motion in depth. Pathologies of depth perception, including stereoanomalies and albanism are reviewed. Visual depth-perception mechanisms through the animal kingdom are reviewed together with a discussion of the evolution of stereoscopic vision. The next chapter describes how visual depth perception guides movements of the hand and body. The next three chapters review non-visual mechanisms of depth perception, including auditory localization, echolocation in bats and marine mammals, the lateral-line system of fish, electrolocation, and heat-sensitive sense organs. The volume ends with a discussion of mechanisms used by animals to navigate.
